Adding Drawings to Equipment

IMS provides the possibility to add Drawings  - visual representations of the Equipment - to the Equipment in IMS. 

Adding Drawings is a two-step process: The first step is Uploading Drawings and Documents, while the second step is applying the image from the storage to the Equipment. Depending on the site, Drawings can be stored on different types of primary storage, like AIM, Sharepoint, Folder. Make sure that the Drawing files saved as AutoCad are saved as the 2016 version of the AutoCAD, as it is the latest supported version currently.

Adding Drawings to Equipment

Once the Drawing file has been uploaded successfully, the second step is adding the Drawing from the storage, and assigning it to a dedicated piece of Equipment through the Equipment Details Page.

To assign a Drawing to an Equipment:

• Navigate to the Drawings and Documents section of the Equipment Details Page.

• Populate the Name field.

• Pick the Extension(s) type.

• Click Search. 

• If uploaded correctly, the drawing file should be visible in the Drawings tab. 

• Click Apply to link the drawing to the Equipment.
